The Los Angeles Kings present another big test for the Pittsburgh Penguins!

We're getting closer to the fourth game of the season for the Pittsburgh Penguins. In this episode, Hunter starts off by updating the listeners on some practice notes & if Teddy Blueger is getting close to his return. Was he back in a regular jersey during practice? Was he doing regular line rushes or working on the PK? Hunter answers those questions and then brings up what will happen when Blueger returns. He also looks at which goaltender will likely start against the Kings before diving into a preview for that matchup. How much has the Kevin Fiala trade meant to the Kings so far? Is a Kopitar-Danault punch down the middle one of the best in the league? He answers those while also looking at the keys for the Penguins to come away victorious in this one, especially since they lost both games against the Kings last season. Finally, Hunter ends the show with a look ahead to the weekend where the Penguins will start a week-long trip. Just how important is this stretch that's coming up? Which players will likely bounce back during this stretch (starting on Thursday)? All of that, plus much more on this episode of Locked On Penguins.
